This does get some folk riled up. Think Joe Root should be on there ahead of Chloe Kelly.

Rory for me , Lando drove the fastest car and still only just won. Littler depends if you class darts as a sport. Not sure why 2 lionesses get nominated for winning Euros when rugger lot won the World Cup. 

Although I think Rory deserves it would love Ellie Kildunne to win it.

Why waste any time pondering it? We all know it will be decided on political considerations and not the best sportsperson.

Whilst we agree on many things, one of things we disagree on is the BBC, which in my opinion is a fine and upstanding organisation

That said, go forth and hang your large hat on the fact that SPOTY is the biggest, politically correct, box-ticking, pathetic example of undeserved inclusivity on TV

Just for clarity, it is the BBC News section I have a distaste for. Their drama's etc. are usually the best around.

Don't like their demands for licence fees and their political preferences. The latter is heavily associated with the former.

I bet it isn't.

Seemed as good a place as any to put this here.  Pele or Beth Mead? "Ooh that's a tough one"

Yeah as much as I would have like Ellie Kildunne to win Rory’s achievements are once in generation results.

 

So it's not decided on political considerations then?

Absolutely, the right result and pleased for Rory, didn't know much about Ellie other than fleeting views of her exploits in rugby but she came across well, a likeable young woman

It is amazing how many people think Rory should not win because he not from the UK. 

Disappointed that one of the ladies teams didn't win the team of the year award.

Mind boggling sometimes. Suppose it's the same as folk who label Indians and Sri Lankans with the 'P' word.
